Keto Berry Pie

Step by Step Instructions

1. 1

   To a food processor, add almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum and salt. Pulse to combine. Add chilled cubed butter and cream cheese. Pulse until coarse crumbles form. Add egg and vinegar. Pulse until combined and a dough ball forms. Separate into two balls (make one ball slightly larger for the bottom crust)

2. 2

   Place the larger dough ball in between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll out, using a rolling pin, in all directions forming a circle a few inches larger in diameter compared to the pie plate. Dough should be around 1/8-1/4 inch thick. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Repeat with top crust.

3. 3

   Make the thicker for the filling by adding sugar free sweetener, ground chia seeds and arrowroot powder to a small bowl. Mix to combine.

4. 4

   In a medium bowl, combine blueberries, blackberries and 2 1/2 tablespoons of the sweetener thickener mixture. Stir in 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Refrigerate while you work on the ‘red’ berry mixture.

5. 5

   In a large bowl, combine raspberries, strawberries, remaining sweetener thickener mixture, and lemon juice. Stir to combine and refrigerate while inserting the bottom layer pie crust.

6. 6

   Remove the top layer of parchment paper to the bottom pie crust. Place a pie plate upside down on top of the pie crust. Slide your hand underneath the pie crust and flip. Remove the parchment paper and press the dough into the pie pan.

7. 7

   Fold a piece of aluminum foil until it fits the diameter of 1/3 of the pie and is about 2 inches wide. Place at the 1/3 mark. Pour the ‘blue’ berry mixture into the left side (smaller) of the foil. Pour the ‘red’ berry mixture into the right side. Be careful not to pour in any juices as that will make your pie filling too soupy. Remove the foil.

8. 8

   Take the top pie crust out of the refrigerator and remove the top layer of parchment paper. Using a cookie cutter and knife, punch out star shapes and cut out wavy flag stripes. Place on top of pie crust. Crimp around the edges with a fork.

9. 9

   Bake the pie at 350 degrees for around 30 minutes. Remove from the oven to cool at room temperature for 2-3 hours before transferring to the refrigerator to cool further if not serving right away.
